So it’s better to aggressively circumvent the cap than ask your gf to stop showing up to games with guys she’s banging.

Sweet.

Jesus 5 1st round picks. That’s basically a mini death penalty. They won’t be good again for a decade

They’ve not been a threat even in the slightest.

Nobody is equipped to handle being terrible for a decade like the Clippers.

Clips gave up 10 firsts and SGA for Kawhi to end up winning like what? Two playoff series?

Kawhi should be banned from the league and his contract voided.

Kawhi should be banned from the NBA. He got off light and is already in the wind with a new team

If the Clippers cannot successfully reduce the penalties imposed, they will have surrendered 10 first-round picks, two first-round pick swaps and two-time MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander to acquire Kawhi Leonard in the summer of 2019 while simultaneously acquiring Paul George.

(Thanks PG!, signed, Thunder fsns)

Neat looking back. KD left. Russ said frick it, I’m extending. Russ drags ragtag players to playoffs. This entices PG to take a chance in OKC with Russ. Eventually Presti turns PG into a record haul.

I thank both Russ and PG. If Russ had left after KD this never happens (he deserves a statue). And of course Presti maximizing a rebuild when KD left. Simply amazing when you look back at how it all unfolded.

Imagine being drafted by Clippers or in a team that trades you to Clippers knowing you will be unable ti contend without those future picks they lost. Will be lots of players refusing to go. Clippers will become a dumping ground to reduce salary for future post penalty picks. They will have to stockpile them for 2034.

The Clippers might actually go 15 straight years without using their own draft pick. From what I can tell, they haven't used their own first round pick to draft someone since 2018.


My god

Best part is that they never even came CLOSE to a championship
